- The Lord from eternity, who is Jehovah, created the universe and all things thereof from Himself, and not from nothing (n. 282-284)
- The Lord from eternity, that is Jehovah, could not have created the universe and all things thereof unless he were a man (n. 285-289)
- The Lord from eternity, that is, Jehovah, brought forth from Himself the sun of the Spiritual World, and from that created the universe and all things thereof (n. 290-295)
- There are in the Lord three things that are the Lord, the divine of love, the divine of wisdom, and the divine of use; and these three are presented in appearance outside of the sun of the Spiritual World, the divine of love by heat, the divine of wisdom by light and the divine of use by the atmosphere which is their containant (n. 296-301)
- The atmospheres, of which there are three both in the spiritual and the natural world, in their outmosts close into substances and matters such as are in the lands (n. 302-304)
- In the substances and matters of which lands are formed there is nothing of the divine in itself, but still they are from the divine in itself (n. 305-306)
- All uses, which are ends of creation are in forms, which forms they take from substances and matters such as are in the lands (n. 307-318)
